Biafra: Uche Mefor Speaks on ESN Operations, Sends Message to IPOB’s Nnamdi Kanu (ICYMI)

Biafra: Uche Mefor Speaks on ESN Operations, Sends Message t

Uche Mefor, the estranged Deputy-Leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has condemned the alleged perpetration of unprovoked killings by Nnamdi Kanu’s Eastern Security Network (ESN).

IPOB is a separatist group agitating for the independent state of Biafra in Nigeria. The ESN is its vigilante arm.

Recently, the Nigerian police arrested sixteen IPOB/ESN militants for alleged complicity in a series of violent attacks on security operatives and facilities in some states in Southeast Nigeria.

“The arrest, which is an outcome of painstaking, deliberate and tireless efforts by operatives of the Nigeria Police working in collaboration with their counterparts from the Nigerian Army and the Nigerian Airforce is aimed at bringing to justice persons responsible for the emerging trend of attacks on security personnel and wanton destruction of security facilities and operational assets,” police spokesman Frank Mba had said.

“Suspects – Ugochukwu Samuel a.k.a Biggy, 28-year-old native of Arochukwu LGA in Abia State; Raphael Idang, 31-year-old native of Odukpani LGA of Cross River state; Cletus Nwachukwu Egole aka ‘Alewa’, 60-years-old native of Orlu in Imo State; Michael Uba, 33yrs from Imo State; and twelve (12) others in the course of investigation, were implicated in multiple felonies committed across several states in the South-Eastern part of the Federation.”

Reacting to the ESN activities via his personal Facebook page a few day ago, Mefor wrote:

“The victims of ESN/UNKNOWN gunmen are our brothers, our kith and kin.
“Nnamdi Kanu, don't you see that this strategy is counterproductive? Why are these young men denied and abandoned? Why is it that on your order, when men fall and things go wrong, you deny them but when it goes well you hail them? This is how Akuwara and others are denied and forgotten. Where is Akuwara?”

In a similar vein, Solomon Egbo, Biara Nation Deputy Administrator Worldwide also berated ESN for their activities.

Egbo made known his thoughts via his known Facebook page.
